Xinjiang City.
Xu Zhiming and Lin Yuru don't know what's wrong with them today. They've suddenly been targeted and inexplicably assigned to work in areas that don't belong to them.
They worked so hard they were covered in dust and dirt.
Xu Zhiming launched into a tirade of curses at the weeping Lin Yuru.
"You jinx! Always crying like that! Your man isn't even dead yet!"
Lin Yuru cried her heart out, "I was targeted for no reason today. Instead of helping me get justice, you spent ages criticizing me. How could I have married such a useless person like you?"
Since marrying into the Su family, Xu Zhiming has been living a very comfortable life, with always having enough money in his pocket.
Ever since he was sent to this godforsaken place, he hasn't had a single good day. He's either working or on his way to work, and it's driving him crazy.
Some time ago, they thought that with Su Wanning's lover, the Xu family's life would be a little better, but unexpectedly, their life got worse. The brigade leader looked down on them.
They are always being ordered around to do this and that.
Before the captain was replaced, Lin Yuru could still sell her body to ensure that the Xu family could have a decent life.
Ever since Su Wanning's lover came and inquired about the situation, she conveniently replaced the brigade leader. The Xu family has tried everything they can, but they haven't had a single good day.
Today, they were inexplicably dragged into this new, undeveloped racetrack.
After a long day, I got home a little late and there was no food left...
All that was left was thin porridge, not enough to fill our stomachs, and there was a wretched woman crying and whining.
She used to be somewhat useful, able to seduce the lecherous captain in exchange for a peaceful life, but the current captain is very upright and doesn't fall for that kind of thing.
He walks with a straight posture and speaks politely; he doesn't look like a lecher at all, and he's somewhat like a retired soldier...
Nothing works, and it feels like they're deliberately sabotaging things. Nothing is going well; it's all the Xu and Jiang families' business.
Xu Manli was pregnant before, and the Jiang family was somewhat indulgent towards her. Now that the child has been lost due to malnutrition, the Jiang family treats Xu Manli like a slave.
Jiang Yibo no longer dotes on her as he used to. She used to be secretly pleased that she had stolen Su Ying's fiancé, but now she feels like a garbage dump for having found a man like this.
"Brother Bo, I just had a miscarriage. Eating these things won't provide any nutrition. How am I supposed to recover?"
Jiang Yibo snorted coldly, "Why can't I take care of my health? Let me tell you, you'd better not covet the last bit of jewelry our family has left. It's not something you can even dream of. Behave yourself, that's the last thing our Jiang family has to save us."
"I've lost my child, and I'm weak now. I need to recover. Isn't the Jiang family always trying to save this child?"
Jiang Yibo looked the man up and down with a mocking gaze. "I fed you well and provided you with good food and drink. I even saved half of my food for you so that you could have a healthy pregnancy. How did you repay me? You're so useless that you couldn't even keep a child."
Xu Manli felt even more frustrated. She couldn't eat or sleep well at the farm, and she still had to work every day. Although Jiang Yibo helped her with a lot of the work every day, he still had to work.
The child was already malnourished due to poor nutrition, and neither of his parents offered any help, so the child died.
They said they were too old to work, so Jiang Yibo did half of the work for them, which caused her to become overworked and malnourished, resulting in the loss of her child.
Since she lost her child, the Jiang couple have been beating and scolding her at every turn, and she has been living a miserable life.
Before the change of brigade leader, she could use her charm to get an easier job, but now the brigade leader is incorruptible and everything she does is useless.
"You blame me for losing the baby. I asked you to help me with chores, but you didn't. Now that the baby is gone, you blame me for everything. Jiang Yibo, don't you feel guilty saying that?"
Whenever Xu Manli brought this up, Jiang Yibo felt extremely uncomfortable. He couldn't eat enough, couldn't sleep, and had so much work to do every day that he could never finish it all.
Now he has endless work to do as soon as he opens his eyes every day, but he has no complaints. So what if he miscarries?
He carried all the chores on his shoulders, and when he got home he was still scolded. How could he not be angry?
Don't think he doesn't know she's having an affair with that deputy captain.
What bad luck!
Nothing has gone smoothly since I got together with Xu Manli.
He regretted abandoning Su Ying to be with such a jerk.
If Xu Manli hadn't seduced him back then, he would be in the resource-rich Dongshi with Su Ying now, instead of being stuck in such a remote place as Jiangshi, where he can't eat or sleep well and has to work like an ox.
He regretted it.
As expected, he has now suffered the consequences of agreeing to Xu Zhiming's unethical conditions.
Lust caused all this trouble.
I wonder how Su Ying is doing now?
Is it good to live alone in the countryside?
"I feel guilty. I shouldn't have abandoned Su Ying for a fickle woman like you, which led to this situation."
"You regret it?"
"Yes. I regret it. I regret it beyond measure."
Xu Manli threw a pillow at him and yelled, "You bastard! You son of a bitch, now that something's happened, you're blaming everything on me. Weren't you having a great time when we were having an affair?"
"What? Now that you have nothing, you're blaming everything on women? You irresponsible bastard, how could I have ever fallen for you in the first place?"
"A capable man won't just run off with someone he's easily seduced. Those who can't control their lower bodies are disgusting!"
"Don't blame everything on women when something goes wrong. It takes two to tango. If you were truly steadfast in your beliefs, would I have been able to seduce you?"
Jiang Yibo never expected Xu Manli to go so far as to completely destroy their so-called self-esteem, leaving it all exposed...
"You... are simply unreasonable."
Xu Manli, with tears in her eyes, snorted coldly, "If you're so capable, go find her in the East Market and see if she still wants you."
"A fiancé who betrayed her, does he really think he's some kind of hot commodity, that everyone is still thinking about him? With Su Ying's pretty face, there are plenty of people who like her. She might already be married by now. No matter how much you think about it, it's useless. She will never belong to you again."
Jiang Yibo was hit where it hurt, and the muscles in his face twitched. He stepped forward, grabbed Xu Manli, and started beating her.
"It's no use getting angry. Who would want a hypocritical dog like you? Su Ying is definitely living a good life now, unlike you, a stray dog."
Jiang Yibo flew into a rage, punching Xu Manli repeatedly, yelling, "I told you to stop talking, stop talking..."
"Coward! I look down on you!"
The two were fighting fiercely. When Mr. and Mrs. Jiang came home from work, they saw that everything in the house was smashed to pieces and they cried miserably.
"What a tragedy! We didn't have much stuff left, and now it's all smashed. How are we supposed to live like this...?"
Jiang Fu stood silently to the side...
